I can find treasures in my dreams

Glorious City.

It was nine o'clock in the morning.

Qin Deguang led a dozen gloomy Eastern Bering people and appeared in front of a building in the northern suburbs.

Just now, these people learned the news that "the Bering Intercontinental Railway Restoration Project was suspended three days after it started", and they were in a terrible mood, so they are still in a bad mood now.

Only Little Ivan was in a very good mood.

Just now on the bus, he revealed the secret of the peace bomb and quietly reached an agreement with Qin Deguang.

He knew that with the support of the superpower Daxia, the success rate of the Eastern Bering region to gain independence has greatly increased.

At this time.

Little Ivan looked at the building dozens of meters away and said in surprise: "Mr. Qin, is this the indoor farm we are going to visit today?"

Qin Deguang nodded and smiled: "Yes! When the farm was built half a month ago, King Shapdian specially participated in the launching ceremony. In order to thank His Majesty the King, we named the farm King's Farm."

Just because of this name, the Shapdian royal family generously donated a huge sum of 500 million Xia yuan.

A simple trick brought rich rewards.

Little Ivan was full of admiration: "It's beautiful!"

The building is more than 100 meters wide and more than 50 meters high, and its appearance is eggshell-shaped.

There is no window in the building, and the facade is covered with a layer of white material, and the surface is carved with cloud-like patterns.

At first glance, it looks like an exquisite handicraft.

Such a beautiful shape is also an important reason why the Shapudian royal family is willing to donate generously.

Alexei and others next to him saw the indoor farm with their own eyes and showed surprise.

No one thought that the people of Daxia would build the indoor farm into a work of art.

Anna began to play the role of commentator: "Everyone, the indoor farm you are seeing now is the third-generation farm designed and built by Daxia.

"Compared with the traditional square farm, this farm has a unique appearance and a lower ratio of surface area to space volume, so it saves more energy."

Little Ivan couldn't help asking: "Miss Anna, since it is the third-generation farm, there should be the first and second generations, right? What is the difference between them? "

Anna smiled and said, "This is a very good question."

She roughly sorted out her thoughts and said, "In order to cope with the food crisis, Daxia began to build indoor farms on a large scale across the country.

"Their construction method is very simple, which is to renovate office buildings, factories or shopping malls.

"First, lay an insulation layer on the outer wall, install an air-conditioning system inside, set up enough light sources, and then transplant the soil.

"Usually, an indoor farm can be completed in about half a month, and then crops such as rice, wheat or vegetables can be planted.

"This is the first generation of farms defined by Daxia!"

The dozen or so Eastern Bailings were shocked.

The construction period of an indoor farm built by the Bering Kingdom is as short as three months, as long as half a year or even longer.

This is the result of full-scale rush work.

But Daxia people only need half a month, which is too fast!

Anna talked about the shortcomings: "Due to congenital defects such as building structure, the insulation of the first generation of farms is generally not very good, the energy utilization efficiency is not high, and the degree of automation is also low.

"In order to improve productivity and energy efficiency, Daxia began to build second-generation farms last year.

"Some of the second-generation farms are based on the transformation of the first-generation farms, while others are newly built.

"The exterior walls of the second-generation farms use new insulation materials, which further improves the insulation capacity.

"The degree of automation is also very high. Key parameters such as temperature, humidity, and light intensity are all automatically controlled by computers.

"A first-generation farm with an area of ​​one hectare requires fifty staff to manage, while a second-generation farm of the same area requires a maximum of fifteen people."

Several Eastern Belarusians showed envy.

Little Ivan was full of emotion.

Because according to the standards of Daxia people, the farm level of the Bering Kingdom is still at the first-generation farm.

For them, Daxia people's second-generation farms are already very advanced.

But in Daxia, it is already backward technology.

The bearded Lev suddenly made a profound statement: "Daxia has a population of 1.8 billion, and you have sufficient personnel. I think there is little point in automation. Arranging more personnel on each farm can also increase the employment rate."

Anna's mouth twitched slightly, but her pretty face still maintained a smile: "If there are fewer people in the indoor farm, then the labor cost will be lower, and the operating cost of the farm will be lower, so that food can be supplied to the people at a lower price."

Lev was a little disapproving, but didn't say anything else.

Little Ivan glanced at Lev and said in his heart: "Idiot!"

You actually asked such a stupid question. What's the difference between you and the workers who destroyed machines during the First Industrial Revolution?

Daxia people continue to develop agricultural technology, obviously planning for the future.

Because the era of food shortage will end sooner or later.

By then, they will have more advanced agricultural technology, which means that their agricultural products will be cheaper, and their competitiveness in the international market will naturally be stronger, and they can even control the global food market.

This is a truly long-term approach.

Besides, the higher the efficiency of agricultural production, the more food produced, the more people Daxia can feed, and the more people with super powers will be born.

Let’s take another extreme example.

If the original monster invades Canglan Star and the whole world is in danger, Daxia can recruit more manpower and form more troops to defend the country.

In short, there are many benefits.

Alexey changed the topic: "Miss Anna, is the only difference between third-generation farms and second-generation farms only the intelligent AI technology?"

Anna shook her head and said: "Of course not. In addition to AI, the third generation farm also applies many new technologies."

Qin Deguang pointed to the white material on the surface of the building and introduced: "This is a special insulation material specially used for third-generation farms. One of the raw materials used to synthesize it comes from the original world."

The Dongfang Bai people were all startled, and their eyes suddenly changed when they looked at the farm.

Qin Deguang smiled again and said: "Under normal circumstances, no matter how good the insulation is, heat will always be lost slowly because the heat source will radiate heat to the outside, which is thermal radiation.

“The indoor farm is so large and the internal temperature is so high, it radiates a lot of heat every day.

"But this special thermal insulation material can reduce thermal radiation by 90%, thereby greatly reducing thermal radiation loss and greatly improving thermal insulation performance."

Anna took over the conversation smoothly: "Daxia has already done an experiment. He put a cup of 90-degree hot water in a container made of super thermal insulation material, and then placed the container outdoors. After three days, the water temperature remained the same. It’s still 85 degrees.”

Qin Deguang then explained the significance of super insulation materials: "The third generation farm uses super insulation materials, coupled with several other energy-saving technologies, the energy consumption is almost 40% less than the second generation farm."

Little Ivan couldn't help but say: "It's amazing!"

He is not an idiot like Lev, so he naturally knows that the biggest operating cost of an indoor farm is energy consumption.

To reduce energy consumption so much in one go is definitely a disruptive new technology.

No wonder people in Daxia call it a third-generation farm!

Little Ivan thought of the farms built by the Bering Kingdom, and increasingly felt that the kingdom's technology was too backward.

Qin Deguang said at the right time: "Everyone, let's go visit the inside of the farm."

He took the lead and walked forward.

The others immediately followed.

Qin Deguang strode outside the entrance gate, raised his right hand and waved lightly.

"drop!"

The watch beeped.

"drop!"

The door lock rang once, and then opened with a click.

An electronic voice came out: "Mr. Qin, welcome to the King's Farm."

Qin Deguang said: "Prince, I brought a dozen guests to visit."

An electronic voice immediately sounded: "Understood, temporary visitor permission has been granted."

Including little Ivan, this group of Dongfang Bai people invariably developed a feeling called "inferiority".

Why does it feel like a science fiction film has come to reality? Isn’t this farm too advanced?

Daxia's technology really shocked them.

Qin Deguang turned to look at the guests and explained: "The intelligent AI of King Farm is called Prince. If you have any needs, you can directly ask the Prince."

As he walked into the door, he narrated: "Although the total planting area of ​​King Farm exceeds 5 hectares, the number of employees is only 20, with an average of 4 employees per hectare, which is almost equivalent to a quarter of the second-generation farm. .

"Because most of the facilities in this farm are completely controlled by the prince. Usually the prince will collect all kinds of information and then make rational suggestions, and finally the staff will make the decision.

"The staff's work is very easy. They hardly need to work with their hands. Most of the time they just need to look at the monitoring."

Qin Deguang paused and then said: "We don't need staff to accompany us when we visit the farm,"

Lev, who just kept saying "automation is not necessary", now kept his mouth shut tightly.

Whether something is good or bad, and whether it is worth doing, you can actually tell by just looking at it with your eyes.

Although Lev was silent, judging from the bearded look, he must have hoped that the Bering Kingdom would also have a king's farm.

soon.

Everyone passed through three isolation doors in succession.

The purpose of having so many doors is undoubtedly to reduce heat loss.

Then a hall of more than thirty square meters appeared in front of everyone.

The prince's electronic eye immediately sounded: "Welcome again to the King's Farm, which provides a wide range of drinks.

"There are ice water, not-so-icy water, cold water, warm water, hot water, and Midsummer Coke that even the famous Mr. Ghost praised. You can choose whatever you want."

Qin Deguang twitched the corner of his mouth and explained awkwardly: "Intelligent AI is trained using large models. The prince's training model makes it like to joke."

The prince disagreed: "This is not a joke, but humor. I must point out the difference between the two. Joking is a kind of entertainment, but humor is an art."

Qin Deguang didn't want to quarrel with the AI, so he said decisively: "Bring me a Coke!"

The prince immediately responded to the request: "Roger that!"

It then expressed its opinion: "I think a prosperous summer is coming, and it is very appropriate to have a cup of Summer Coke at this time."

Anna also said: "I'll have a drink too."

The prince responded quickly: "Yes, beautiful lady."

This bunch of Oriental white people were suppressed again.

The powerful intelligence displayed by the prince in just a few dialogues made each of them feel like a country bumpkin entering the city.

A second passed.

A food delivery robot slid over lightly, with twice as many Cokes on its tray.

The prince asked again: "Gentlemen who have come from afar, don't you want to try Daxia's Coke?"

Little Ivan was the first to react: "Give me a drink."

The rest of Dongfang Bairen all made the same choice.

After all, the AI ​​has said that this is the Coke that even the ghosts of Great Xia like. Who wouldn’t be curious?

The robot appeared for the second time and delivered Coke.

Little Ivan picked up the glass and took a sip, feeling the bubbles popping on the tip of his tongue, and commented: "Very good!"

Some Oriental white people also nodded in agreement.

Lev felt it was very ordinary, but he didn't dare to say it.

He prefers the two colas that were popular in the world, namely the Western Hemisphere brand cola.

He knew what he was thinking. The more good things he saw in Glory City, the less he wanted to see Daxia rise.

Qin Deguang shouted: "Prince, take us to visit the planting area."

"OK!"

The words just fell.

A palm-sized drone flew up from a table.

An electronic voice came from the speaker: "Everyone, please follow me."

After passing through a long corridor and passing through an automatic door, the front suddenly became clear.

I saw a space that was at least half a football field and more than four meters high, which immediately caught everyone's attention.

Planting boxes five meters long and two meters wide are neatly placed on the ground.

Each planting box is neatly planted with green vegetables.

Judging from the color, the green vegetables are growing quite well.

Little Ivan looked around and found nothing related to intelligent AI.

He glanced at the drone and wanted to ask, but he was not used to talking to drones.

Lev asked directly: "Prince, I think this place seems to be no different from the first generation farm?"

The drone turned and the camera was pointed at Lev: "Mr. Lev, I can show you AI planting."

The next moment.

Dozens of drones flew down from the ceiling, spread out, and quickly passed over the rows of planting boxes.

Everyone looked a little confused.

What are you doing?

The prince immediately revealed the answer: "Everyone, please look at the wall."

The drone projected a beam of light that fell on the wall next to it.

Hundreds of pictures of green vegetables are displayed on the wall, and each picture is surrounded by dense parameters.

Little Ivan has a certain understanding of things like big data and instantly understood the meaning of these pictures.

The prince explained: "To be honest, the growing environment of each green vegetable is absolutely impossible to be exactly the same, they are all slightly different.

“This subtle difference will inevitably lead to differences in the growth of vegetables, and vegetables with different growth conditions have different needs for nutritional elements.

“We used drones and a series of observation instruments to record the growth of each vegetable from germination to the present, as well as various parameters every day.

"Through intelligent AI analysis, we can know what kind of growth environment each vegetable needs and how many nutrients it needs. We will make corresponding adjustments to ensure that the vegetables always have the most suitable growing conditions."

The prince paused and said, “This is something neither the first-generation nor the second-generation farms can do.

"Because the workload is too great, it is difficult to bear it solely by manpower, but intelligent AI makes it possible."

It then gave the data: "We have done a lot of comparative experiments. The third generation of lettuce cultivation has a yield of 32% higher in one harvest season than the second generation farm, and the growth rate is 12% faster.

“There are still occasional diseases on crops on second-generation farms, but that’s definitely not the case on third-generation farms.

"Because as long as there is a slight change in the growth of crops, we will find the root cause in time and nip the disease in the bud."

The prince did not finish his words: "Since the intelligent AI will closely monitor each vegetable, if any vegetable has a tendency to mutate, we will notice it immediately and there will be almost no omissions.

"So third-generation farms can more efficiently cultivate crops with mutated characteristics, which is something that first- and second-generation farms cannot do."

Qin Deguang added: "Just a few days ago, the king discovered a vegetable with mutant characteristics.

“After analysis, we believe that it shows a preference for low temperatures, and the subsequent test results also confirmed this.

“If it were first- and second-generation farms, we might be missing out.”

These Dongfang white people were almost dumbfounded.

Even the most ignorant people will know that third-generation farms must be the future development direction after hearing the prince’s explanation.

Lev even felt a little blushing, and regretted his cerebral palsy remark that "automation is unnecessary."

Alexey couldn't help but ask: "Can Daxia help Eastern Bering build a third-generation farm?"

The prince immediately responded: "Sorry! I'm just the farm steward. This is not my business."

After saying this, the scene suddenly became a little cold.

After a second.

Qin Deguang replied awkwardly: "Mr. Alexei, this matter involves too many things. I'm afraid it will take a high-level discussion of Daxia before a decision can be made."

Alexei sighed in disappointment: "We came with sincerity, but your country doesn't have much sincerity?"

Little Ivan glanced at Alexei quietly and almost laughed out loud.

I think this nominal leader doesn't seem to understand the situation yet.

The behavior of the Daxia people has been very clear.

Shapudian fully surrendered to Daxia, and even the capital was controlled by the Daxia people, so Shapudian got everything.

Dongfang Bering wants to maintain an equal relationship with Daxia, and also wants this and that. Is this a daydream?

This is what you call "sincerity"?

Stupid!

Little Ivan sincerely felt that if an idiot like Alexei led the Eastern Bering, no one would be able to survive.

Kill him!

He must be killed!

Little Ivan quietly clenched his right fist and immediately released it.

Qin Deguang changed the subject: "There are still many good things in the King's Farm, let's continue to visit."

The prince immediately said: "Everyone, please follow me!"
